Why not challenge yourself to help us challenge the structures that keep people in poverty?
Thank you
Thank you to all our brave supporters who dropped from dizzying heights to raise money for our work in a sponsored abseil.
Abseils were held in Manchester, Newcastle, Exeter, Dorset and Hertfordshire and people from all over the country turned out to support this event and see their loved ones face their fears and go over the edge for poverty.
Newcastle city centre was awash with Superheroes, Exeter saw a Valentine’s Day with a difference and the Manchester Abseil was featured on the local BBC radio!
Captain America, aka Sean Hunter, said: ‘I loved taking part in the Newcastle Christian Aid sponsored abseil. I have always wanted to do something like this and to be able to abseil in my home town for such a worthy cause was great!’
Thanks again to everyone who supported this event, keep your eye on this page for more abseils happening in 2013…
All the money you raised by abseiling for Christian Aid counts:
